245: Green shoots in the arm ft. David Shoebridge & Steph Hodgins-May

Woah the Greens have a new leader! Lots of discussion of that coming next episode, but first, in this bonus episode for Patreon subscribers, Tom is joined by Josh Cullinan, Director of Strategic Litigation at the Retail and Fast Food Workers Union (aka RAFFWU) - the naughty, unregistered, non-ACTU affiliated FIGHTING UNION for retail and fast-food workers in Australia! Recently the new Victorian Premier, and former SDA member, Ben Carroll, suddenly introduced the Associations Incorporation Reform Amendment Bill 2026, and it sure seemed designed to help the SDA and big business. Is the Shoppies union a tool of Colesworth etc designed to keep workers down?
